Chapter 302
Of course, the reason why these green battalion soldiers are equipped with small bows on a large scale is because most of them used to be guard soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

And after they surrendered to the Qing court, the Qing court didn't bother to replace the arms of these green battalions!
The Qing army rushed in, and the people wailed.

People were constantly being hit by arrows, and then died tragically.

A few Qing troops charged forward with spears, and they strung two civilians into a string in a tentative charge. The scene was extremely horrifying.

The people are getting more and more flustered!
In the face of the ferocious green battalion soldiers of the Qing army, the common people are really almost powerless to fight back.

Seeing the Qing army chasing and killing them, the guards of the Xia family were in chaos, and some even abandoned the master's house and fled on horseback on their own.

"Come back! Come back!"

"The young master who protects the master and his wife arrives in Macau, and each will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!"

Xia Haikang yelled like crazy, wanting to call his nursing home back.

But it has no effect at all!

It is true that the bounty he promised is a lot, but it also needs to be spent!

Fortunately, the Xia family usually treats the servants fairly well, and there are still some servants who are grateful for the kindness of the master's family, and do not turn around and run away, but still guard next to the Xia family's team.

Xia Haikang ordered loudly.

"I don't want all the money, throw it away, throw it all away!"

"Let's go on horseback!"

"..."

However, the pursuit of the Qing army was quite fast.

The fleeing people were quickly dispersed by the cavalry of the Qing army, and the mountains and plains were full of collapsed and crying people.

A Qing soldier galloped past, and with a sharp saber, he split a fleeing civilian from the waist and abdomen.

Blood and viscera sprayed everywhere!

"kill!"

"Kill the rioters!"

"..."

The ferocious Qing army continued to charge and kill, wantonly massacring the people who had no resistance.

A squire fled on horseback, but was stabbed to death by a Qing army chasing after him.

A woman hugged her child's body, knelt on the ground and broke down crying.

But in the next moment, an arrow pierced her head, and the crying stopped abruptly.

The endless field was filled with corpses in different shapes.

A small river next to it has also been stained red with blood, turning into a veritable river of blood.

Many people jumped into the river and tried to swim across the other bank to escape, but just as they entered the water, arrows shot down one after another.

Blossoming blood bloomed on the river surface!
One after another corpses floated on the water, resembling Yama hell.

At this moment, several tall warships suddenly appeared at the end of the river.

On the mast of the warship, the flag of Ming Dynasty fluttered high!

boom!Boom!

The next moment, the sound of cannons resounded.

Thick gunpowder smoke spewed out from the gun ports on the side of the warship!
One after another, the shells were fired towards the place where the Qing cavalry was densely populated.

The artillery shells bounced forward, turning several Qing soldiers with their horses into stumps and broken arms.

For a while, the original arrogance of the Qing army was suppressed!
Facing the warships of the Ming army going up the river, the Qing army no longer dared to chase and kill the common people unscrupulously, but began to gather and prepare for battle.

Some Qing army cavalry came on horseback, skimmed near the river, and then threw arrows at the warship in the center of the river.

From time to time, there was the sound of arrows falling on the deck of the ship!
The side guns roared, and the musketeers fired round after round.

The cavalrymen of the Qing army who were riding their horses by the river were hit and fell off their horses, or died on the spot, or let out bursts of miserable howls.

The Qing army saw that they could not take advantage of it, and under the firepower blockade of the Ming army, it was difficult to continue to slaughter and plunder the people.

Immediately pull the horse and leave, simply choosing to retreat!
The Qing army receded like a tide, and the warships of the Ming army docked, and began to send manpower to meet and gather the fleeing people on the shore.

Wang Youcai stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the battlefield, and sighed heavily.

What happened today is not accidental, it has happened almost every day during this period of time!
The people fled, the Qing army pursued and killed them, the Ming army sent navy to meet them, and the Qing army retreated...

It seems to have formed a routine!
Over the past few days, a large number of people have poured into Hong Kong and Macau, but more people died under the butcher knife of the Qing army.

"To lead the people back to Macau, the imperial court has a large number of sea ships in Macau, which can take the people out to sea at any time."

Wang Youcai opened his mouth and ordered.

"promise!"

The orderly was ordered to do it.

Wang Youcai's adjutant asked.

"Master Garrison, shall we continue to go north?"

Wang Youcai waved his hand and said.

"The Qing army set up water villages and forts to defend the navy in front, so there is no need to go any further!"

……

On the other side, under the support of the Zhoushan Rebel Army, Wang Fuzhi and others had already left the range of the Qiantang River and headed eastward to the Zhoushan Islands.

Standing at the bow of the boat, the three of them looked at each other with bitterness on their faces.

"Going to sea now, I don't know when I will be able to return home!"

Gu Yanwu said in a tone full of emotion.

Wang Fuzhi looked in the direction of the mainland, but his heart was full of bitterness.

He didn't like a foreign regime like the Manchu Qing, and every time he saw his hair accessories with money and rat tails, he would feel a deep sense of shame in his heart.

In this regard, he swore that he would never be an official in the Qing Dynasty for the rest of his life!

But he also felt that since he had never received the salary of the Ming court, it was enough for him not to be an official in the Qing dynasty.

I didn't expect that at my age, I would be forced to embark on the broad road of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty!
Ma De, what a fool!
On the other hand, Huang Zongxi looked calm, looking at the open sea, thinking about how to write the preface to "Ming Yi Waiting for Visit Record", which he had been pondering for a long time.

Zhao Erhu at the side laughed when he heard Gu Yanwu's words.

"Don't worry, sir, with the great talents of His Royal Highness Jian Guo, it will only be a matter of time before the Emperor Taizu regained the Central Plains and reproduced the great cause of expelling the Tartars."

Gu Yanwu opened his mouth to test.

"I wonder if Daming has a corresponding plan to counterattack the Central Plains?"

Zhao Erhu shook his head and said.

"I have no idea!"

"The matter of strategy, His Highness Jian Guo will decide with one word!"

"For a martial artist like me, just obey orders!"

Gu Yanwu stopped talking.

On the other hand, Wang Fuzhi asked.

"I don't know what His Highness Jian Guo wants us to do when he invites us to Luzon?"

Zhao Erhu said.

"His Royal Highness Jian Guo thinks about the reason for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty, and thinks that the problem may be due to the ideological level!"

"Since the rise of Neo-Confucianism in the Southern Song Dynasty, Yashan once and Jiashen once, China has already perished in both worlds!"

"His Royal Highness Jian Guo made it clear that Neo Confucianism must have problems, and it must not continue to exist as the world's most famous learning."

"However, in order to rectify people's hearts, clarify etiquette, and cultivate virtue, His Highness Jian Guo called together educated people from all over the world to compile "New Confucianism" together."

"Use "New Confucianism" to replace xue xue, and treat it as the most prominent xue xue in the world!"

Huang Zongxi smiled and nodded.

"There is indeed a big problem with Neo Confucianism!"

"Duke Yangming publicly refuted Neo-Confucianism back then and founded the School of Mind. It's a pity that Mind-School failed to ban Neo-Confucianism from its orthodox position."
